non-stop route

Straight to destination

A non-stop route is a travel path between two points without intermediate stops.

In aviation, a non-stop route means the plane flies directly from origin to destination without landing: The airline added a non-stop route from Denver to Tokyo.

The term distinguishes from direct flights, which may stop but don't require changing planes.
